I saw Mr Simon Ellis very recently at KIMS for my knee problem. Firstly what a delightful man. He took time in finding out the why’s and wherefore and gave the impression that he had all the time in the world. From consultation, to x rays and treatment it was all completed in just over an hour. Fantastic. I would highly recommend Mr Ellis as he puts you at ease and gives you a vast amount of information to enable you to choose a satisfactory outcome.

I saw Simon Ellis three years ago for a left anterior cruciate repair. From start to finish I had excellent care, and was able to walk out of KIMS the same day after surgery. The whole experience was one of efficiency and expertise from all concerned. More recently I was experiencing pain in my right knee, and so contacted the hospital to make an appointment to see Mr Ellis again. I had the initial consultation, an MRI scan and a follow up appointment all within eight days. I was given a clear explanation by Mr Ellis of the problem (luckily no intervention needed) and advice as to improving matters. He is easy to talk to and puts one at ease. I would highly recommend Mr Ellis for any knee problem, as he is reassuring, straightforward and informative, and I felt confident that I was in safe hands.
